Can't comment on the situation in Ireland. On one of my permissions of over is 3000 acres in Scotland it was teaming with rabbits. We had to CONTROL them as the FARMER wanted this done as part of our contract with him over the shooting rights for the game shoot. . So every weekend we flushed them with spaniels and shot with 12bores used 22lrs and ferreted them this only kept the numbers down never wiped them out .Two very hard winters and then mixie and we suspect the other virus (don't know the name) that kills them as we picked up a few bodies that had blood around the nose and mouth

Not making excuses could just be dumped as indicated or gone off with the warm weather before cleaned and taken home or stink pile set up for a fox or just seen as vermin to get rid of maybe damage to forestry or crops contractor at work not everyone kills for meat just saying not everything is as it seems.

the situation is I have ground in scotland for a pheasant shoot so we have the shooting rites a problem has been ongoing with roe over population and road casualties. Without going into to much detail it looks like I may be tasked with culling .Now as I have a 223 and its legal in Scotland to use on roe also my ticket has the any other lawful quarry issued by Northumbria not a Scottish force . (A) Do I put in for a 243 and have deer added to my ticket from the Northumbria force . ( Without any deer courses under my belt would it be a waste of time trying .Any advice . cheers Dave.

folk who love fast food but can't stand to have the smell of the leftovers in the car so dump them out of the window folk who drink energy drinks and havent got the energy to put the empty bottle in the bin and drivers who think the speed limit is the MINIMUM speed no matter what the road/traffic conditions are. And who is this mother who always throws the sh*ty nappy oot the car onto the road.

maybe a daft question and of topic but has anyone petitioned for cctv in old folks homes. WHO decides what is cruel and what's not .When working on the f&m outbreak half way thru we where instructed to stop the lads from tail twisting the beasts when trying to get them into the crush but the use of a stick was ok and we also had vets on site. We kill animals to eat could this be the real issue driven by vegans and the public who have no idea of how the meat gets to the table..

its becoming rare in many organisations too many degrees out there, in possession of people with no life experience, and it's getting where if you say to someone, you have no common sense you are discriminating against them, but who and I mean who would fine a child, for a lemonade stand, they should publish his name, it's embarrassing. Why I pact inn work early gaffers with degrees and thought they new everything and not the common sense to admit when they are proved wrong.

He looks in great shape. Better to relax a dog and give it time away from the normal routine. -
We forgive you..... we're knot thick-ist ! no your not thick -ist but I think I am thickest today anyway lol He's just saying that perhaps this whole thing has been blown out of proportion and that the members of this forum lap this sort of stuff up without really questioning it. most of the comments seem to be tongue in cheek

Noted that Wednesday would be dry up on the Scottish borders, so I decided to pop up to one of my permissions to put in the day. As its an hour and a half drive I try and cram as much into the day as I can so took the 12bore and 22lr plus the three spaniels . Rolled into the yard about 9.30am . now I normally deal with the farm manager but the land owner appeared he came over and we had a bit banter he asked me to go over to his game crop to deal with the rabbits this wasn't in my plan but he's the boss so that had to be my priority . Got the sako out and my home made quad sticks of I go com
